Stories of Aetas Valon: Snow's Rest
A downloadable Visual Novel for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Three years after the war that changed his realm forever, Lord Audvald of House OIemere is invited as the honorary guest of a commemoratory feast held by Lord Eldurkol of House Hrafn; his longtime friend and secret lover.
It is in these days they plan to celebrate their hard-fought victories after years apart. A chance at reunion and respite from the chaos of the world, and the pressures of their station as heads of houses with a historic rivalry.
Of course, appearances must be kept among guests. But, hiding their affair may be the least of their concerns as nightmares of the past and fears of what's to come for their home presents their own challenges...

Yes! I can't even describe how long I've been waiting for this update! Lovely writing, amazing artwork as always. Eldurkol and Audvald are so cute together, I wish the story will have a happy ending with them living happily ever after.
I'm really curious what the next day has to offer!
Thanks so much for the compliment! Please tell us how you enjoy the update when you do finish it!

You see, I've completed it in one breath! To avoid spoilers, I'll say it's just amazing and it was worth the wait 100%. You did great, I'm hungry for more content about the setting and those lovely guys.
We're glad you enjoyed!!! Hopefully the next update shouldn't take as long. There's much more to come! :3

There is a region in the world that's inspired by east asian culture, which will make an appearance in a future game. However, this game is focused on the northern region of Jaanovetur, which is broadly inspired by Nordic culture.

I'm trying to play this game. But I don't know if I'm doing something wrong. When I download the files all I get is some behinds the scene stuff no actually game?
Heya! You've done it right I think. Try clicking the .exe file at the very bottom of the list, that's the game.
-Bon
I tried Clicking exe but nothing? I don't know what else it could be?
Are you on Mac or PC?
-Bon
I’m on Mac
Hello! It seems that the current version doesn't work on Mac devices. But we'll have a compatible version out with the next update that's releasing soon! <3
The writing and the updated sprites are done, we only have a few CGs left to work on.
- Thamer
Oooh! I really like the characters of this story, and the story it is setting has me intrigued.
I’m just sad that it is so short, I see a lot of potential on where this story could go!
We're releasing an update soon!!!
Wooooo, i loved it. They are adorable, can't wait for the next update
Thank you! We're looking forward to it too! X3

Is this a Ren'Py-based VN? I will use JoiPlay for Android.
Did you mean JoiPlay? because I couldn't find anything about JoyPlay.
If that's what you meant we'll look into it, and maybe apply it.
Yeah, a typo.😅
Will there be a MAC version?
If I'm not mistaken the top version already supports mac, so download and unzip that and you should be good. <3
-Thamer
I think theres always an issue with the file when combined, happens with all of them, MAC wont run the game when its put together like that. Not sure why thou.
We'll try and sort that out soon hopefully.
-Thamer
Seven months later and we're still waiting...
ToT it's around the corner I promise!
- Thamer

looks dope ! But ~will there be an android version tho :BEGGING:
also is it sfw or nsfw? reading it either way.
It will have nsfw soon hopefully!
- Thamer

- Thamer
